Clear & Red Chinese Bellflower Murrini/ Millefiore COE90

Each slice in this jar carries a five-petal flower set inside a bright red scalloped border. The petals are cut from transparent clear glass, which reads dark and smoky against the red surround in the photo and against most backgrounds. The red border follows the outline of the flower, so each piece is a clean two-color botanical motif that stays readable across the range of sizes.

Murrini, also called millefiori, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane. Place individual slices on the surface of a fused glass piece and fire them so they fuse in as decorative accents on jewelry, pendants, plates, dishes, suncatchers, and ornaments. These are COE90 murrini; use them only with glass of the same COE.

What does the pattern on these murrini look like?
Each slice shows a five-petal flower with clear glass petals inside a vivid red scalloped border. Because the petals are transparent, they read dark and smoky in the jar and take on the tone of whatever glass sits beneath them once fused.

What glass do I use with these murrini?
These are COE90 murrini. Use them only with glass of the same COE. Combining glass with different coefficients of expansion can introduce stress and cracking in the finished piece.

How are these sold?
These are sold by the jar as an assortment of slices. Slice sizes and counts vary from jar to jar.

How do I use these in a fused glass project?
Place individual slices face-up on the surface of your COE90 base glass before firing. A full fuse melts them flat and flush for a smooth, integrated look, and the clear petals pick up the color beneath them. A tack fuse preserves more of their raised profile.

Working Notes

A full fuse melts these slices flush with the surface for a flat, smooth finish, and the transparent petals read against the glass below. A tack fuse keeps them raised and dimensional. The right choice depends on the effect you want and how your glass and kiln respond. Fire a small test piece first, and follow a firing schedule matched to your specific COE90 glass.
